Through the project Extreme Ice Survey Iceland, a series of photography platforms have been installed in Iceland to enable citizen scientists to record how the country’s glaciers are changing. The new initiative by the Iceland Glaciological Society invites the public to document changes by taking photographs of glaciers from predetermined locations and uploading them to build a photographic record preserved for future generations. The project is backed by environmental photographer James Balog who has spent a distinguished career documenting the decline of glaciers worldwide. In the last few years, historical glacier photographs of the Iceland Glaciological Society have been scanned and registered, along with additional archives. This historical archive is being used to create repeat photographic pairs, documenting glacier change since the 1930s. Together, these initiatives will create ground to delineate past, present and future glacier change, with the participation of the scientists and the public.
